About the Item
Unique small hand-made terracotta bowl, incised with a decorative all seeing eye pattern, by California potter Bruce Carlton Anderson (American, 1915-1986). This earthy piece is in the style of Marguerite Wildenhain of the Pond Farm, where Anderson was a student.
The underside is incised with Anderson's mark and POGONIP A 31.
Measures 1.75" H x 6" D.
Bruce Anderson is known for his mid-century functional, production pottery. He studied at Pond Farm where he was an early student of Marguerite Wildenhain. Anderson founded Pogonip Pottery near the old Pogonip Polo Club in Santa Cruz, California and held a one-man show of his handmade stoneware at the Santa Cruz Library in 1941. He is known as one of the area's first significant potters.
Anderson exhibited in the Syracuse Ceramic Nationals in 1948, 1949, 1950 and 1962. He was affiliated with the Association of San Francisco Potters (now the Association of Clay and Glass Artists of California). In 2006, his work was exhibited at the Santa Cruz Museum of Art and History as part of “Time and Place / Then and Now” an exhibition of Santa Cruz potters.

Douglas Ferguson for Pigeon Forge Crater Glaze Bowl #3, American Studio Pottery
Located in Clifton Springs, NY
Vintage hand-thrown bowl features complex Crater glaze in mocha and latte brown colors. Minimal color palette and streamlined shape of the piece allow the textured glaze with variations from semi-matte to high gloss to take the spotlight; slightly asymmetrical rim adds hand-crafted, Organic Modern mood to the bowl's design.
The bowl is personally signed by Douglas Ferguson on the bottom with his name and "Pigeon Forge Pottery".
The Crater glaze has become one of the most recognizable glazes made by the Pigeon Forge Pottery. Often commonly referred to as "Volcanic" or "Lava" glaze, the Crater glaze was developed and made in several colors. We are offering a vase and 4 more bowls in different shapes by Douglas Ferguson, done in variations of Crater glazes, in separate listings.
Douglas Ferguson (1912-1999) was an established Tennessee pottery artist; he received a degree in Art Design Studies from Mars Hill College and worked in the Ceramic Research Laboratory for the Tennessee Valley Authority in Norris, TN, from 1935 to 1947, where he experimented with local clays. In 1946 he started Pigeon Forge Pottery in an old tobacco barn with his wife Ruth and Ernest Wilson, his colleague at the Ceramic Research Laboratory. He formulated many of his own glazes, including crystalline and Crater glaze.
In 1957 he created the Clingman Dome tea set, named by Ferguson for the highest peak in the Great Smoky Mountains, which the state of Tennessee presented to Queen Elizabeth. Ferguson became a member of the Southern Highland Craft Guild in 1948 and remained active until 1998, receiving Life Membership in 1991. He earned two awards from the Tennessee Arts and Crafts Festival in Nashville, received the Rotary Certificate of Distinguished Service, and was featured in books on Appalachian...
